And you know what: they look pretty similar to my beloved grey Franco Sarto boots! Of course I approve them!:-) BTW, mine have black heels... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-269090 Tue, 21 Dec 2010 00:49:37 +0000 Aida 269090@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them on you, and I vote in favor of staining the heels; they'd still look appropriately casual for casual outfits but would certainly work in more dressy options than without the darker heel. Great find and congrats </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268967 Mon, 20 Dec 2010 17:20:02 +0000 Scarlet 268967@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them up and down, Jonesy. The fit looks perfect. I do think the heel color is an unusual touch but not necessarily bad. I do think staining them black would make the boots less casual. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268702 Sun, 19 Dec 2010 23:01:09 +0000 Lisa 268702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These look great. I prefer them scrunched. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268675 Sun, 19 Dec 2010 22:20:08 +0000 Anonymous 268675@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, your quest is paying off. Perfect is the word that comes to mind. The leather looks so soft. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268545 Sun, 19 Dec 2010 16:11:44 +0000 Angie 268545@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Darkening the heels is a fabulous idea, Jonesy!</p> <p>Next quest - how are you set in the handbag department? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268507 Sun, 19 Dec 2010 12:01:52 +0000 medusa 268507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definite keeper! Yay! You have great legs by the way, and these boots show them off quite nicely.</p> <p>I think the contrasting color of the leather vs heel is not a problem, and personally I would be far too lazy to have the heels stained. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268484 Sun, 19 Dec 2010 08:58:15 +0000 AJ 268484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FAB, FAB, FAB!!</p> <p>I still have to learn about fitting boots to my calves. : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268474 Sun, 19 Dec 2010 07:42:33 +0000 yublocka 268474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous boots Jonesy. They look awesome up and scrunched down. Talk about versatile!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268448 Sun, 19 Dec 2010 03:39:52 +0000 Maya 268448@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just love them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268436 Sun, 19 Dec 2010 02:42:39 +0000 cciele 268436@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Renee, have you looked at Sudini? They have many styles of classic black knee-high lower heeled boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268427 Sun, 19 Dec 2010 02:34:32 +0000 Reneeb 268427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep for sure it is so hard to find boots that fit and look great. I am looking for dress black knee boots with a 1-2 inch hell and really don't know where to start. All I have bought are mostly casual boots and booties. You have inspired me to start the hunt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268421 Sun, 19 Dec 2010 01:40:24 +0000 Jonesy 268421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Angie! Yes, they are a bit casual, but they feel like "me" and I love how they fit and look. I am contemplating having the heels stained black too, which will smarten them up a bit, I think.</p> <p>Now what should my next quest be...... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268394 Sun, 19 Dec 2010 00:15:28 +0000 Angie 268394@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER. </p> <p>If you are happy with their casual flavour, Jonesy - please keep </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268391 Sat, 18 Dec 2010 23:53:53 +0000 Marley 268391@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KEEPERS! Absolutely gorgeous on your legs! A great buy, IMO! As far as the heel goes - I would tend to keep them as is, but if you want them to look a little dressier than you could stain them a true black. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268387 Sat, 18 Dec 2010 23:41:50 +0000 Jonesy 268387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I see what you mean about the ankle situation, but IRL they don't look particular baggy around that area, at least not as bad as some I've tried on :). I really like them scrunched too, but don't know if they will stay that way when I'm wearing them. They tend to pop back up.</p> <p>Does anyone have any thoughts on the heels (to stain solid black or not)? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268371 Sat, 18 Dec 2010 22:36:25 +0000 Bookarella 268371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that you have found the ones! They look great every-which-way! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268350 Sat, 18 Dec 2010 21:51:31 +0000 RoseandJoan 268350@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are very nice Jonesy, I have a preference for them scrunched as it gives more shape to the ankle area but they also look good pulled up. The leather looks lovely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268347 Sat, 18 Dec 2010 21:34:13 +0000 rute 268347@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love them!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268340 Sat, 18 Dec 2010 20:56:30 +0000 chellebrate 268340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them very much, and they look as if they fit well. I'd say your quest is over if this is what you were after! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268339 Sat, 18 Dec 2010 20:53:46 +0000 Jonesy 268339@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So far, so good! C1, my SO (who took the pics) noticed that they looked brown in some, but they are definitely black. Must be the bad lighting/no sunlight situation we have, from now until April, LOL. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268337 Sat, 18 Dec 2010 20:51:40 +0000 cciele 268337@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, two thumbs up for sure! Those are great boots that fit you well and are very versatile. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268336 Sat, 18 Dec 2010 20:48:31 +0000 MsMary 268336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, those are gorgeous! I vote keep!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268335 Sat, 18 Dec 2010 20:48:24 +0000 crazyone 268335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jonesy, they look great to me...one thing though, they distinctly look like they're chocolate brown on my screen. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268334 Sat, 18 Dec 2010 20:47:17 +0000 Louise 268334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thumbs up from me I particularly like them scrunched though pulled up is good too x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-others-is-my-boots-quest-over#post-268331 Sat, 18 Dec 2010 20:27:27 +0000 Jonesy 268331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I found The Boots: tall, black, not too many bells and whistles, slim calf (I have 14 inch calves and wear a size 11 typically), 2-inch solid heel (i.e., not a riding boot, not a kitten heel, not a 3-incher), and not explicitly Western. I found them on endless.com (they were 30% off--they are having a promotion that ends on Monday). They are by D-Segno, which I see Nordstrom carries. They are beautifully made, lined in leather, and fab.</p> <p>Here they are in many iterations (straight/scrunched, bare legs/with tights/with leans, front view/side view). What do you think? They fit perfectly and I looove them--hope the verdict is a thumbs up!</p> <p>The heels are wooden, stained a sort of faded black. I like them like this, but I could also see having them stained a true black--thoughts on this? </p>
